How Long Does It Take To Repipe a House?

One reason Richmond, VA, homeowners put off repiping their homes is the inconvenience. However, replacing your plumbing doesn’t take as long as you think. Here are things to consider.

Generally, repiping a small to medium-sized home takes between a few days to a week. Larger homes or ones with more complex systems may require up to two weeks. Let Woodfin – Your Home Team give you the expert help you need. Here’s how it works.

Inspection: The plumber will inspect your current system and plan the new pipe layout.
Materials: We choose the best material for your new plumbing system based on your needs and budget. For example, we may use copper, PVC, or PEX.
Preparation: Our plumbers cover floors and furniture to protect them while they work.
Access Pipes: We’ll create an access point to get to the old pipes, which often involves cutting into walls, ceilings, or floors.
Removal and Replacement: We remove the old pipes and replace them with new ones.
Testing: Once finished, we test the system to ensure proper water flow and check for leaks.

In most cases, we only shut off water to specific areas at a time, allowing you to use other fixtures so you’re not entirely without water during the repipe.

4 Signs You Need A Whole House Repipe

Repiping a house is something every homeowner dreads, but if you’re experiencing consistent issues, it’s well worth it in the end. Here are the four most common signs you need to upgrade your plumbing.

Frequent Leaks:

If you suffer from frequent leaks, drips, or breaks, it could signal that your pipes are old, corroded, or damaged.

Discolored Water:

Is your tap water brown or murky? Does it smell or taste metallic? As metal pipes break down, they can tint water or cause it to smell and taste funny.

Low Water Pressure:

If you live in an area with hard water, mineral deposits will build in your pipes, causing them to narrow and slow water flow. Unfortunately, most drain cleaning methods can’t solve this; the only solution is replacing the pipes.

Noisy Pipes:

Banging, whistling, or groaning noises from your plumbing could be a sign of loose fittings or indicate your pipes are deteriorating.

If you’re unsure you need to replace your pipes, call one of our expert plumbers for an inspection. Woodfin – Your Home Team provides 24-hour live answering services in Richmond, VA.
